Recent match highlight — Chelsea Women vs Barcelona

Chelsea fell 4-1 to Barcelona in a tough UWCL quarter-final first leg. The game had a bright moment: goalkeeper Hannah Hampton kept Chelsea alive with a penalty save from Alexia Putellas. Still, defensive errors handed Barcelona control and left Chelsea with work to do in the second leg. If you missed the match, focus on two things: the penalty save showed resilience, and the defensive breakdowns are the main area the coaching staff must fix quickly.
